I was looking for a Sandisk 64GB micro SD card for my new Gopro. I looked back on 12/1 and could find them for about $41 from multiple vendors, not a sale or anything special. Today I went back to place my order and can't find them for under $63. I saw a similar jump in prices on the 32 GB micro cards. What happened?


Canon 60D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 70-200mm f/4L IS, Canon 10-22mm, Canon Extender EF 1.4x II, Canon 430EX II, B+W MRC filters, Pelican 1450 with dividers, Think Tank Digital Holster 10V2, 2011 Macbook Pro 15" i7 2.0 GHz 8GB RAM, Canon D10

Noticed the same thing for memory cards over here. Doubled in price in about a month…
No idea why.

A neighbor is a regional manager at Best Buy and tells me one thing driving it is numerous smart phones and tablets that can now use easily the micro cards. My wife's Samsung Galaxy S3 for instance has a 32 GB card installed as does a Galaxy Note tablet.

Yeah, but over here (Netherlands), SD and CF also (more then) doubled in price.
A 4GB Sandisk Extreme costs about €16 or €22 (SD vs. CF)…
